Water Treatment for Automotive and Aerospace
In automotive and aerospace manufacturing, water quality plays a critical role in everything from precision part cleaning and surface preparation to cooling systems and wastewater management. Contaminants in process water can affect coating adhesion, compromise machining accuracy, and lead to equipment wear or compliance issues. At Culligan Texas, we design and implement advanced water treatment solutions that meet the rigorous standards of high-performance manufacturing environments.
Whether you need high-purity water for surface finishing, optimized cooling system treatment to protect precision equipment, or closed-loop water recycling to reduce consumption and waste, our systems are engineered to support product quality, operational efficiency, and environmental responsibility for your facility.
For over 74 years, we’ve delivered high-performance water treatment solutions tailored to the demanding standards of the automotive and aerospace industries, such as:
- High-Purity Rinse Water Systems – Provide ultra-clean water for critical rinse stages in painting, coating, anodizing, and surface prep to reduce spotting, corrosion, and rework.
- Paint & Coating Line Water Conditioning – Ensure consistent water quality in pretreatment and coating booths to improve finish uniformity and reduce defects.
- Cooling Water Treatment for Machining & Testing Systems – Prevent scale, corrosion, and biofilm in high-precision equipment cooling circuits and engine test cells.
- Closed-Loop Reuse Systems – Recirculate and treat rinse or process water to reduce water consumption and minimize chemical discharge without sacrificing performance.
- Filtration & Oil Removal – Remove fine particulates, tramp oils, and residues from washdown or machining operations to protect equipment and maintain process integrity.
- Compliance-Driven Wastewater Treatment – Treat and neutralize water from metal finishing, painting, and degreasing lines to meet environmental discharge limits and avoid downtime.
Water Quality Targets & Treatment Insights for Automotive and Aerospace
- High-purity water is essential for precision rinsing in parts washing and coating processes to prevent surface defects.
- Reverse osmosis and deionization systems reduce mineral content, helping to maintain tight tolerances in manufacturing.
- pH adjustment and filtration help remove oils, metals, and particulates from wastewater before discharge or reuse.
- Water recycling systems lower consumption and support compliance with environmental regulations in large-scale operations.

Our Automotive and Aerospace Water Treatment Solutions
Culligan Texas offers a wide range of advanced water treatment systems designed to meet the demanding operational standards of the automotive and aerospace industries.
Our solutions include:
- Reverse Osmosis (RO) – Delivers high-purity water for surface preparation, paint and coating lines, and critical rinse stages by removing dissolved solids that can lead to defects or rework.
- Deionization (DI) – Produces low-conductivity water required for applications such as final rinsing, precision cleaning, or surface treatments where ionic contaminants must be eliminated.
- Filtration Systems – Protect sensitive manufacturing equipment and improve process consistency by removing sediments, chlorine, oils, and particulates from process and utility water.
- Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection – Prevents microbial growth in recirculated water systems—such as those used in cooling circuits or closed-loop rinse lines—without adding chemicals that could interfere with surface adhesion or coatings.
- Dealkalization – Reduces alkalinity in water feeding boilers or heat exchangers, helping maintain stable temperature control systems and extend equipment lifespan.
At Culligan Texas, we help automotive and aerospace manufacturers reduce production defects, safeguard critical systems, and maintain regulatory and quality compliance. Whether your facility requires ultra-clean rinse water, optimized cooling system performance, or wastewater reduction strategies, we design solutions that keep your operation efficient, consistent, and compliant.
